Crowbar has no interest in coaching or teaching wrestling once he decides to hang up the wrestling boots.
During a new interview with WrestleZone, Crowbar spoke about how his downtime during the pandemic helped make him timeless and created a new career renaissance. Since then, he’s found himself showing up on cards for AEW, in the Bunkhouse Battle Royal at Ric Flair’s Last Match, and most recently in New Japan. He loves the aspect of performing, but coaching is a different story.
“You ask me if I want to be an agent or a coach or something like that, that would be the equivalent of an office job, a real job to me. I have a real job three minutes to my house,” Crowbar said, who outside of the ring is a full-time physical therapist.
“To have to get up at four in the morning, go to the airport, fly somewhere, be away from my family to do an office job it just doesn’t interest me. If I’m somewhere performing and somebody wants to casually pick my brain, sure. I’ll answer any questions and give my opinion, but to have that as my job it doesn’t interest me at all. When I’m done being able to perform at the level that I do, when I know I can’t do it at that level anymore, I have no interest at all at being a manager, I have no interest at all at being a coach,” he said. over the years, Crowbar has asked if he wanted to teach at several wrestling schools and he has always declined. Wrestling in the ring is what has always kept him going.
“When that’s done, it’s done. That’s it,” he said. “When I can’t physically do the wrestling, it’ll be community theater or something like that just to have some fun. That’ll be it.”
